Skills The usual ones to mention are languages (good conversational French, basic Span-
ish), computing (e.g. "good working knowledge of MS Access and Excel, plus basic web
page design skills" and high driving ("full current clean driving licence").
References
Many employers don’t check references at the application stage so unless the va-
cancy specifically requests referees it's fine to omit this section completely if you are
running short of space or to say "References are available on request."
Normally two referees are sufficient: one academic (perhaps your tutor or a project
supervisor) and one from an employer (perhaps your last part-time or summer job).
